Hello mister! Yes, that’s a previously unseen image of Arpad ‘your Hungarian daddy’s gonna make all your wet dreams come true’ Miklos by Terry Richardson from BUTT 24. At BUTT Headquarters, we’re always coming across hot shots from the archive that we couldn't squeeze into the issue. So we thought why not share the wealth, and maybe provide a bit of a stud-update on where they’re at now.

In case you've been living under a rock, Arpad has starred in over sixty porn films since the early ’90s when he left his hometown Budapest during the undoing of the communist regime. These days, he makes ends meet by working as an escort in NYC where he gets top dollar as an in demand DILF. I wanted to know more about what it’s like to wake up with porn royalty and check-in about his summer plans.

Danny: Hey Arpad… We’re smack dab in the middle of August, do you have any holiday plans?
Arpad: I wanted to go to Alaska this summer. I’ve been there once before — it’s so beautiful. I wanted to return and spend some more time there, but my best friend who I wanted to go with couldn't get two weeks off, so we had to postpone our trip.
What is your idea of the perfect holiday?
I like active holidays. Road trips, a lot of outdoors… I prefer mountains and deserts over the ocean.
I see from your Rentboy profile, you don’t work mornings.
I’m definitely not a morning person. I usually go to bed around two or three A.M.
Are you a coffee or tea kinda guy?
I must have a coffee in the morning. But then later, during the day, if it comes to the coffee-tea dilemma, I normally have iced tea. Sometimes too late and too strong, and then I toss and turn in my bed.
I loved your appearance in the video for that Perfume Genius song ‘Hood’…
I got a lot of positive feedback on that video. I’m glad it worked out so well, but the merit is not mine — I was just an extra.
Update
Miklos was found dead in his Lower East Side, New York City apartment on  February 3,  2013 from an apparent self-induced drug overdose. A suicide note was found at the scene instructing friends regarding his wishes for any memorial service.
The motivation for his suicide was speculated as long-term depression. Miklos' friend and New York writer Randal Lynch is quoted as saying "He was a very active person in the gay community. He wasn't happy, I would say, but he wasn't going into crying fits. He was a hard nut to crack. I knew he was depressed, but I didn't realize the severity of it, because he was not a very talkative person about his own emotions."
